This is a foundational unit to introduce the nature and context of business management. It also covers essential skills for students’ future work. The unit examines management as a process of planning, organising, leading, and controlling the efforts of organisational members. It discusses how recent trends such as globalisation, economic change and the effects of new technology have led to profound changes in organisations, and how organisations are managed to respond to these trends. It explores the functions and processes of management and encourages students to critically reflect on management theory and practice. The unit explores these issues with respect to large and small, public and private, and domestic and foreign organisations.
